Story: Campaigner fights on for BT-Phorm prosecution
BT conducted?
when you said "BT _conducted_ further Phorm trials at the end of September 2008, after delays of over six months. It gained customer consent for the September 2008 trials."
did you mean to say BT have said they _ARE_ currently _CONDUCTING_ a trial of the data packet interception for profit ?
they (both BT and the Phorm PR teams)have indeed said they had started this latest trial, and that it would run for several weeks (6+ i beleave) so it is runnin right now if you beleave them.
however, as of today, a full 16 days later,NOT ONE single BT customer (as apposed to a known Phorm shares owner with a vested interest OC) on the betaBT messageboard, the register comments section as relates to this story, the investors sites, or any NoDPI reader has yet confirmed they have infact been intercepted for the interstitial page to be displayed and acted upon.
bottom line, there is currently NO EVIDENCE that anyone HAS GIVEN their PERMISSION to be INTERCEPTED FOR PROFITto date.
so your claim that customer consent was given is wrong at this time, infact it sounds like a direct Phorm PR bit of copy, you wouldnt be copy-pasting or taking Phorm PR submitted text to increase your news copy would you?
its strange, not one single report or sighting of anyone seeing and acting on official informed consent opt-in Phorm web page, and given the the fact Phorm were giving their latest finantial report, (and it was dire), the day before the so called trial started.
you might be forgiven for thinking the trial date was a market hoax to try and keep the stock price from falling even more, goo job the news services do their homework and didnt rely on and fall for the Phorm PR, or did you/they ? ;)
